Ras Lanuf Reset: Libya’s National Oil Corporation has taken full control of the Ras Lanuf refinery and petrochemical complex after ending a decade-long dispute, with shares transferred from UAE-based Trasta to NOC—an immediate sovereignty win for the country’s biggest refining hub. Migration Crackdown: Eastern Libya says it rescued 120 migrants held by traffickers south of Benghazi and recovered three bodies from the coast, after an escaped Egyptian led security forces to the torture-and-ransom sites. Dinar Pressure: The Central Bank of Libya is again pushing to shut unlicensed FX exchange outlets and prosecute currency speculators as the dinar slides back above LD 8 per dollar. Libya in the Wider World: A U.S.-led special forces exercise in Sirte reportedly trained Libyan units from rival camps together—an unusual step toward a unified security push. Regional Context: Greece is weighing a diplomatic protest after a Ukrainian explosive sea drone was found near Lefkada, with possible links to Libya mentioned.
